Managing a team would be so much easier if everyone just thought the same way as you, and simply got on with the job. But in real life, it’s never quite like that. Each person has their own way of thinking and doing, their own pace of work, their very own peculiarities, talents and blind spots. This session explores how we are all rooted in our own cultures, our assumptions, and the product of our pasts, how to be aware of the potential barriers which may get in the way of leveraging the diversity in our organisations and about understanding the huge potential that it brings to do extraordinary things.
